Rolls Royce Motors Fountain Pen (Silver - London - 1982) who made it?

[mikey_abz]

Good evening,
I recently purchased a "Rolls Royce Motors" Solid Sterling Silver Fountain Pen with 14k Nib (c/converter fill) - Hall marked as Sterling Silver (Cap & Barrel) London 1982.
Anyone have any idea who made this pen? I haven't seen anything on the internet.

Mike :D

Okay, you have an English Hallmark as well as date code it appears. The maker's mark is registered and should be available. Send the image to someone at the Birmingham Assay office and I bet they can tell you at least who made the overlay.

Emailed the London Assay Office, that was a good idea ;)

The nib looks very "Lamy".

Had email back from London Assay:

"The sponsor’s mark belongs to the Taylor Pen Company/Taylor Minster Ltd."

TP makes sense. But understand they only made the overlay. The pen itself is still an unknown but now you know who to ask about where the pen itself came from.

I have always found the folk at the UK assay offices to be great. Now the last of the marks looks like a date code. That is available online at the assay offices.

That pen reminds me of a Dunhill pen. I read somewhere that there is a company who made pens for both Dunhill and some models of Montblanc in German. Some here may know what I'm talking about.

Is now for sale on the auction site, I will use the funds to restore the two other vintage pens I have.

Geha? Compare the nib and section of this pen to piscov's Geha in the For Sale subforum.
